Ladies and gentelmen, welcome, today we are going to learn a song called Mockingbird from Eminem. It's a very difficult song. I give you that.
But if you try really hard, maybe you can get it started. And we are gonna cover the beginning of the song from "Hailie, I know you miss your mom and I know you miss your dad" until "no more nightmares".
First of all of course let's listen to this piece of the rap:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad well I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
I can see your sad
Even when you smile
Even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes
Deep inside you wanna cry...
First of all, you gotta find yourself the words of the song, or what we called the lyrics of the song, and we are gonna skip the first part with a lot of reading, you know, with emotions,
it's like:
Yeah
I know sometimes
things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what'd daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
Whatchu crying about?
You got me.
Very easy just read it through, but with a lot of emotion. So it goes like:
Yeah
I know sometimes
things may not always make sense to you right now
But hey, what'd daddy always tell you?
Straighten up little soldier
Stiffen up that upper lip
Whatchu crying about?
You got me.
That is very easy, and here comes the best part...aha we are gonna do this very slowly at the first time,
so it goes like this:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad
well I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
All right this time pay special attention to the linking between words, so it goes like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad
well I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
so you see?
Keep practicing until you sounds like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad well I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
I can see your sad
Even when you smile
Even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes
Deep inside you wanna cry
Cuz you're scared
I ain't there,
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more cryin'
Wipe them tears
Daddy's here
No more nightmares
Right there.
Now, the second thing I wanna talk about is when you breathe. It goes like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad when I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had (breathe)
First part when you breathe
Hailie, I know you miss your mom (breathe)
And I know you miss your dad when I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had (breathe)
I can see your sad
Even when you smile
Even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes
Deep inside you wanna cry
Cuz you're scared
I ain't there,
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more cryin'
Wipe them tears
Daddy's here
No more nightmares
If you don't have to breathe through it at all, that would be even better, sounds more natrual.
So from "Hailie I know you miss your mom" till "No more nightmares"
all together sounds like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad when I'm gone
But I'm tryin' to give you the life that I never had
I can see your sad
Even when you smile
Even when you laugh
I can see it in your eyes
Deep inside you wanna cry
Cuz you're scared
I ain't there,
Daddy's with you in your prayers
No more cryin'
Wipe them tears
Daddy's here
No more nightmares
The tip is you start from a very slow speed, if you can't say it like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad
you can go like:
Hailie, I know you miss your mom
And I know you miss your dad
and then...(speed up +++)
If you wanna learn this song, first of all you've got to have a very good sense of language itself and you have to keep practicing until you can rap it out.
So this is the part we covered this time, difficulty five star, very very difficult, extremely difficult. If you are very interested in the song.
Well...just keep going...
